Our 'Southern Living II' is the 'sister house' to 'Southern Living on the Eastern Shore'. It is located between the Central Park, and the town beach, both a 5 minute walk to either spot, as well as a 5 minute walk to the downtown attractions of Kelly's Gingernut, The Shanty, and Cape Charles Coffee House Restaurants. There is an Arnold Palmer/ Jack Nicklaus Golf Course within a 10 minute drive. The new boatyard and marina, along with the redesigned Oyster Farm Seafood Eatery is a MUST see. The white sand beach (cleaned and graded daily) is the perfect place for children to play, swim, shelling, and search for sea glass. This 1920 house has was remodeled in 2004 and again with upgrades in 2013 and 2017 after we purchased it. It is one of the largest dwelling rental properties in town sitting on 3 1/2 lots that are fenced in for relaxing while the kids are at play. The house is 4 levels. A refinished game room is in the partial finished basement with 2 smart tvs and 2 gaming systems.The house has refinished hardwood floors throughout. The first floor boasts a huge Master bedroom suite with an oversized tub and walk in shower, with a private balcony. All new appliances throughout the kitchen and laundry room, a walk in pantry, dining area that seats 12, a large living area, along with a screened in porch for night time cocktails & fellowship. Walk up to the second floor (in one of the 2 staircases that the kids LOVE!) to find a fully remodeled bathroom, a children's themed double bunk bed room, and 3 queen bedrooms. One more floor up is a finished attic with a Full bed and twin bed and in 2021 has a full bath, giving the home full baths. There is a 1/2 bath off the kitchen, a and an outdoor shower with both hot/cold water, with an additional cottage to store bikes, beach chairs and such. The property offers backyard ally parking as well as street parking, and has 2 hot water heater sources as well as 2 zoned Central Air Units. We have made every effort to duplicate the fantastic feedback from our first property to truly make it a 'home away from home'.

About the host

Host profile image
After acquiring our first house in Cape Charles, we pursued this beautiful dutch colonial right across the street that we have always loved. We are a family of 6 with 4 now teenagers (we purchased this home when they were all under 4!) We come to Cape Charles as much as we can, as our primary home is in Maryland, and our other summer home is 20 minutes North in Eastville on the water... We hope to make this town our next move in the next 2 years

Why they chose this property

We started coming to Cape Charles from Connecticut in 2008 and knew we wanted to make this our hometown some day. This spacious property offers 6 bedrooms. It easily allows for 8-11 adults along with 4-6 kids to enjoy a vacation without climbing over each other. The house has so many areas to relax in including a gaming room From the front porch, side porch, gardens in the yard, and the proximity to everything is great. Monroe Street is the quietest street in town, that has a tree lined peninsula. The park also breaks up the street so this end of Monroe has very few cars that travel through it.

What makes this property unique

4 story single dwelling home. Guest House Cottage on fenced in property available for storage.
